Watergone By Switch5681

Removes a bunch of water from one location. Has interesting effects in oceans. I wouldn't use this in production servers until you get a chance to play with it in a test server. This is my first mod, so feedback is welcome.

The object name is watergone:remover.

Recipe:


added watergone:lavaremover

Recipe:

That's gravel on the top, a steel block in the center and a U of coal lumps.

what about lava! cool mod otherwise.

you know, I honestly hadn't thought about lava at all. It'll be easy enough to add a lava remover. I'll get something worked up in a bit.

Thanks.

Added a lavaremover block.

Nice!

So I saw this referenced in the sponge mod thread and went and got it, it works amazingly well and I think it should be popped into Mod releases

+1 I literally just saw that in the code. Needless to say, I giggled.

This is very useful when building underwater.

Now we Need, a Mese Removal ^_^.

This should be named liquidgone rather than watergone, as the mod removes both liquids.

I have reuploaded this mod to Mediafire in case anyone wants to download it. It still seems to work in 0.4.7.

Broken in 0.4.9,
09:40:19: ERROR[main]: ServerError: /usr/share/minetest/builtin/deprecated.lua:41: stack overflow

Changed max_blocks to 100 and it seems to be working fine now. 5000 was pretty insane anyway.
